What is the 2.01 worth? (1 Viewer)

[Donnybrook]

Jason LaCanfora just said that Rams are fielding offer that have included future first round picks. It is being discussed on the NFL network.

A second rounder today is often worth a first rounder next year (no surprise on that), but this year (considering the one night layoff), I think it will be worth more in past years. If i were the rams, it would not be a question as to whether I keep the pick, but determining which offer to take. This is really new ground for NFL GMs and there are bound to be franchises that will overpay for the pick.

Beauty is in the eye of the beerholder.

It's worth swapping 2nds and another high 3rd minimum.

If someone trades up for Clausen for a boatload of picks, the Rams should at least thank the Vikings for helping them out.

If I'm an NFL GM and think I have a top 10 team, I'd most certainly trade my 2011 1st rounder for the 2.01 this year.

I agree and honestly, isn't that the standard? I may be overblowing this, but I think we are in a new world with the delay b/t Rounds 1 & 2 and teams have the ability to push the pause button and get real deals done. My guess is that someone is estatic a certain player is out there now and while in the past they may not have had time to culminate the deal, today they do. If I owned pick 30-32 in the first round, I would have gladly traded it for a firm handshake...I really think someone is going to overpay, whether it is pick 1 or 2 in the second round.

I'm sure a majority of the owners and GM's already have those draft value sheets....it's infinitely harder to get a boatload for 2.01 than it is for a 1.01. there's just that one or two GM's or owners who might be dreaming overnight about the 33rd best player in the whole draft.

besides, how long is the clock for 2nd round picks?

I wouldn't be surprised if some teams trades their 2010 2nd and 1st next year for 2.01.

The clock, I believe is still 10 minutes (could be mistaken), but even if it is one minute, in reality, it is 20 hours considering they had all day to deal...this is why i think something "special" will happen. As far as the pick sheets go, i think they are a nice, quickie analysis of x pick, but when a team has all day to field offers and play them against each other, I would throw it all out the window.

According to Eisen, Billy Devaney is saying that he doesn't expect to be making that pick.

Seven minutes in Round 2. Five minutes in Rounds 3-7.

Thanks. I referenced that in a different thread but didn't catch all of it and thought I heard what you just posted.

Eh, if Minn wanted Clausen, they wouldn't have traded down last night. They would have just picked him at 30.

There is a small chance the Vikings will take him but there is a larger chance the Vikings will trade down to allow some other team to take him. So either way the Vikings may have help the Rams by passing. But I could be assuming too much when I think the target is Clausen. If a team is planning on trading up for the 2.01, who will they take? McCoy or Tate or someone else.
